Our new Danish salmon

After careful consideration, we have decided to transition from our excellent Faroese salmon to a Danish, land-raised salmon produced on the outskirts of the coastal town of Hirtshals in northern Denmark.

Chef Kim Kops with a premium Danish salmon side. After extensive tastings, the kitchen at Denmark’s smallest lunch restaurant has selected land-raised salmon from Hirtshals for our beloved classic, Smoked Salmon, at Ibens Smørrebrød.

The salmon is farmed in land-based tanks, allowing the production to be closely controlled. This method significantly reduces the risk of heavy metals and unwanted environmental toxins, which can unfortunately be found in some sea-farmed salmon.

The salmon is dry-cured using traditional methods and hung by the tail during smoking. This old-fashioned technique results in an exceptionally refined smoked salmon. The texture is leaner, and the smoke is distributed more evenly throughout the fish during the process.

We look forward to hearing your thoughts on our new ingredient – get ready, it is truly excellent.

Our new Danish salmon is the main ingredient in our open-faced sandwich Smoked Salmon, which you can find on our menu.
